Glad I've found this as I'm fitting a cable throttle onto my cup and was wondering about the plug situation
@NorthloopCup
Hopefully I can work it all out from this.
Or do I need to fit ph1 ecu and engine loom?
Had a few hours in the garage again today.
Engine wiring loom pretty much all in, exhaust manifold bolted up and alloy rad and slam panel trial fitted
I then moved inside to see about trying to get rid of the airbag wiring crap.
That's not a lot of fun and any advice welcome!!
Getting there...
I tend to run a bit more rear brakes so prefer the adjustability of a bios valve, so perhaps by changing your pressure reducers for an adjustable bios valve it may balance the car a bit more. Perhaps your reducers are sending very little pressure to the rear.
As for the way you have the m/c...
Don't know how they can say that's wrong as such as you still have one front and one rear into each gallery of the master cylinder, its pretty much the same setup as im using on my clio.
Had a couple of hours in the garage earlier and got a few jobs done.
Did the rear brake lines from the master cylinder to the bulkhead fitting and fitted the throttle cable as it's a lot easier to do before fitting the engine
Then I have dropped the engine and gearbox back in as my brother...
Had a sort out of a load of stuff and tidied up my garage so I can assemble some more bits in there and store my seats etc safely.
Also moved the engine and gearbox to the car so once I have swopped the pedal box to the one with cable throttle and fitted the new braided line from the m/c to the...
Sunroof problems are common, firstly check the drains are clear in the sunroof, they are holes I'm the front corners of the sunroof - you will need to pop the glass out to check properly.
If they are clear, then you will probably need a new seal kit fitting. Think they are just over £200 but it...
Tonight job was fitting the alternator and a few other bits.
I took the bracket into work and it met with the bandsaw and sander so it's a bit neater without the pas pump on it
Card and tank tape is the new MSA ruling, bit of extra protection to go with the window film. I am finding the brown a bit dark so may switch to white to brighten it up
Cheers Dan!
I've got to do it, I'm 40 this year and I've got a couple of boxes that I want to tick.
After this, I will be looking at doing something else with my boys as they are growing up fast.
Yes, it's the one I was using in my old sprint car. You had the original box that I replaced with the gripper box.
Yeah, I want to concentrate on trying to do some rallies this year, although I will probably still go to a few sprints and hillclimbs to watch my brother in his Mazda
Tonight's job - finish wrapping the 182 manifold
100ft of 1" wide exhaust wrap and about 4 hours in total (whilst watching TV at the same time)
Crappy job but it's done now and should reduce a fair bit of heat from the engine bay.
I may as well try and start a bit of a build thread for my Clio stage rally car.
A few of you know that I was competing in Sprints and hillclimbs in my original cup car and had some pretty good results in 2014. I had a lot of fun with quite a few class wins, 1 track record (Wigan), 2nd overall...
